Grow with us! Founded by Norberto Jaeger in 1946, Companhia Minuano de Alimentos began as a small paper packaging factory and printing press, shifting its business focus in 1955 to poultry farming. In the 1970s, it became one of Brazil’s largest poultry meat producers and participated in founding the Brazilian Association of Poultry Producers and Exporters (ABEF), which later evolved into the Brazilian Poultry Union (UBABEF) in 2010, consolidating itself as a national benchmark in the sector. In 1984, Minuano acquired a sausage factory in Arroio do Meio, supplied with raw materials from integrated poultry slaughterhouses, thereby expanding its operations within the food sector. Today, Minuano operates a vertically integrated poultry production system, covering everything from breeder farms to poultry processing and slaughter, ensuring quality at every stage. Its industrial complex comprises seven units: Poultry Slaughterhouse and Refrigeration Plant, Sausage Factory, Hatchery, Breeder Farms, Feed Mill, and Administrative Center. With its poultry operations focused on providing services to third parties, the company concentrates its efforts on producing and delivering high-quality food products, placing particular emphasis on its sausage production operations—reinforcing its brand strength and consumer recognition. The company exports to over 30 countries across four continents. Domestically, nearly 30 products comprise its portfolio, available throughout Rio Grande do Sul state, reaffirming the brand’s deep connection with the people of Rio Grande do Sul.
